Apple is rumoured to launch its second-generation AirTag in May or June this year. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman previously reported that a new AirTag would be released in mid-2025.
According to a post from a tipster known as Kosutami, with a second-generation Ultra-Wideband chip, the AirTag 2 is expected to have up to 3× longer range compared to the current AirTag. The chip debuted in the iPhone 15 and the Apple Watch Ultra 2.
On the iPhone 15 and iPhone 16 models, there is a Precision Finding for People feature, helping you to find your friends in crowded places, and it offers a range of up to 200 feet/60 meters.
The new AirTag's built-in speaker is rumoured to be more difficult to remove or tamper with, as an anti-stalking safety measure.
The new AirTag is claimed to have advanced integration with the Apple Vision Pro. In the US, an individual AirTag is priced at $29, and a set of four costs $99.
In another post today, Kosutami indicated that new AirPods Pro are on the horizon, along with new Apple smart home accessories.
Apple is rumoured to unveil an all-new smart home hub this year, and it is also claimed to be working on a Face ID doorbell and a smart home camera for release in 2026 or later.
